Christmas Eve gunplay in Hephzibah

Bullets tore through a Hephzibah home and a car parked in the driveway around 7:30 p.m. Friday, but none of the four people inside were injured, a Richmond County sheriff’s report states.

The resident said he was sitting in his son’s bedroom when he heard gunshots and a “zipping noise” outside the house on the 2700 block of Pebble Creek Court.

He told deputies he saw “numerous” bullet holes in the living room walls and a bullet in the hallway. Deputies said they also observed a bullet hole and a broken window in a Toyota Corrolla parked outside the house.
